Minnie Mouse is the ultimate feminine character! Her classic bow, sweet polka dots and a heart made of gold are just a few of our favorite characteristics of this girly girl. We wanted to create a recipe that captures all of those elements and we knew a classic pink milkshake complete with Minnie Mouse ears and a darling fondant bow would be perfect! This milkshake was the ideal sweet treat to serve up at our Minnie Mouse birthday party and we think you'll love sipping on it as much as we did!
- 1 Gallon Vanilla Ice Cream
- 2 C. Whole Milk
- 1/2 C. Sugar
- Vanilla Cake Frosting
- Pink Food Coloring
- Miniature Oreo Cookies
- Pink Sprinkles
Start prepping your Minnie Mouse Milkshake by dressing up the milkshake glass. We tied a simple bow out of black and white ribbon and secured it to the base of each of our glasses with a dot of hot glue.
Next, it is time to coat the rim of the milkshake glass with some frosting. Not only does this look adorable but it tastes delicious too. Simply invert the milkshake glass into the frosting container and twist the glass so that about one inch of the rim gets coated in frosting.
Make the rim of your milkshake glass extra pretty by adding some of your favorite pink sprinkles to the frosted rim. We used these gorgeous sprinkles from our friends at Bakery Bling.
Now its time to start mixing up the milkshake. You will need milk, ice cream (save 6-8 scoops for later), sugar and food coloring. If you want to skip the food coloring, you can easily leave it out!
Add the ice cream, milk, sugar and a few drops of food coloring to a blender and blend the mixture on high until smooth.
Pour the milkshake into the frosted glasses and grab the Oreo cookies and the last of the vanilla ice cream for the next step.
Scoop a small amount of vanilla ice cream and place it right on top of the milkshake. Your milkshake will be thick enough to support the weight of the scoop. Then place two Oreo cookie ears on top and add a paper straw. We added a few extra sprinkles on top as well.
Add Minnie's classic bow by cutting a thin strip of fondant and pinching it in the middle. Then place it by the Oreo cookie ears.
Serve up your adorable Minnie Mouse Milkshakes at your Minnie Mouse Birthday Party or just as a special treat for your Minnie Mouse fans at home!
